For various reasons. Read an introductory calculus book; they are usually full of examples that have practical applications.
One common use of differentiation (derivation) is to find the maximum or minimum of some function. A maximum or minimum can occur (a) at the endpoints of the interval under consideration, (b) at a point where the derivative is zero, (c) at a point where the derivative is not defined. This, obviously, requires differentiation.
Integration can be used to find areas and volumes, or, more generally, the area under a curve that might not necessarily represent an area in the geometric sense. For example, work = force x distance - but what happens if the force changes while you move? This "variable product" is equivalent to finding an area under a curve.

Importance of series in Calculus?
Series in calculus are important for many reasons. One of them is the ability to differentiate or integrate a series that represents a function much easier than the function itself.
How can you integrate a matrix?
You integrate each element of the matrix.
What do you mean by integrate?
to integrate something means to put two things together to make a new one
What do integrate mean?
In calculus, "to integrate" means to find the indefinite integrals of a particular function with respect to a certain variable using an operation called "integration". Synonyms for indefinite integrals are "primitives" and "antiderivatives". To integrate a function is the opposite of differentiating a function.
